  1. Colors wash out when playing videos


    Hello!


    I have this issue for quite a while. I noticed when playing a movie or a video on a video player (i tried VLC, Windows Media Player, and the desktop app for Netflix) the picture changes sometimes to a really washed out color and it changes back after a while. I also noticed it only appeares in full screen mode, and when i move the mouse, it immediatelly reverts back to the normal colors.

    It is really annoying and I can not seem to find a fix.


    Please help me.


    Some information that might help:

    I have -

    Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8250U CPU @ 1.60GHz
    Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620 (version 25.20.100.6446 (2018. 11. 19.))

    :)

  2. Windows Media Player color is washed out

    Whenever I attempt to play a video in Windows Media Player for Windows 10 the color is washed out. This is only with Windows Media Player. Movies & TV works fine. Can anyone assist me with this issue?

  3. Trimmed Videos in Photos App are washed out

    If i trim a clip of a video and trim out the beginning then the rest of the video will be washed out. I tested it and it only washes out the video if you trim out the beginning of the video. If the trim include the beginning then the colors will be normal
    for the rest of the trim.
